Tenth question:

This painting by .... depicts the arrival of .... at ...

Answer by Nicholas Sudbury:

The painting is by Benvenuto Tisi, 'Il Garofalo' (early 16th century). It depicts the Roman matron Claudia Quinta, chosen for her purity to bring back to Rome the statue of the Magna Mater (Cybele) to try to end a famine in the city. Here she is shown releasing the boat from a sandbank at Ostia (after praying to the goddess for strength - and also to prove wrong the watching elders who had cast aspersions on her purity), from where she is said to have pulled it by hand up the Tiber to the city centre.
The story is told in Ovid's 'Fasti' Bk IV; this painting hangs in the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Antica in Palazzo Barberini.
